Objective:To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of neuro-Beh?et′s syndrome (NBS) in children.Method:The clinical, brain magnetic resonance imaging and laboratory data of 5 children with NBS diagnosed in the Department of Pediatrics, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University and Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from April 2014 to April 2024 were analyzed retrospectively. The follow-up method was retrospective outpatient or inpatient visit to evaluate the treatment effect of NBS.Result:Among the 5 NBS cases, 2 were male and 3 were female. The age of admission ranged from 8 to 17 years, the time from onset to diagnosis was 2 days to 4 years. Two patients had dizziness, headache and convulsions during the treatment of NBS, 1 patient had disturbance of consciousness, 1 patient gradually developed aphasia, limb movement disorder, dysphagia and muscle weakness after 4 years of Behcet's syndrome, and 1 patient had no clinical symptoms. C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were increased in 4 cases, and cerebrospinal fluid white blood cells and immunoglobulin G were increased in 1 case. Brain magnetic resonance imaging of 4 children showed multiple lesions, including bilateral frontal lobe, occipital lobe, parietal lobe, periventricular and corpus callosum lesions. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple demyelinating diseases in 1 case, and cervical and thoracic magnetic resonance imaging showed slender cervical and thoracic spinal cord. All patients were treated with corticosteroids combined with immunosuppressants or biological agents. The children were followed up for 6 months to 4 years, and 4 cases had good treatment results, and 1 case finally gave up treatment.Conclusions:The clinical manifestations of NBS are not specific, and brain magnetic resonance imaging shows that the lesion location and morphology are not specific. NBS children treated with corticosteroids combined with immunosuppressive agents or biological agents have a good prognosis.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To investigate the expression of inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase type Ⅱ B(INPP4B)in colorectal cancer(CRC)and the relevant clinical significance,to determine the relationship between INPP4B and matrix metallopeptidase 7(MMP7)in CRC cells,and to make preliminary exploration of the effects of INPP4B on the proliferation and migration of CRC cells and mechanisms involved.Methods The TIMER2.0 and GEPIA2 databases were used to analyze the differences in INPP4B expression between cancer and para-cancerous tissues and the effects of such differences on the prognosis of CRC.The expression of INPP4B in 102 surgically resected CRC tumors was determined by immunohistochemistry(IHC),and the correlation between INPP4B and clinical pathological indicators was analyzed.In CRC cells with overexpressed/knocked-down INPP4B,the expression of INPP4B and MMP7 were examined by real time fluorogenic quantitative PCR,the protein expression of INPP4B was assessed by Western blot,cell proliferation was determined using the CellTiter 96? AQueous One assay,and cell migration and invasion were assessed using wound healing assay and real-time label-free dynamic cell analysis(RTCA).The LinkedOmics database was used to analyze signaling pathways related to INPP4B function,and the role of potential key molecules was validated at the cellular level.Results Analysis with the TIMER2.0 database and GEPIA2 database showed elevated INPP4B expression(colon adenocarcinoma[COAD]:2.30,rectal adenocarcinoma[READ]:2.33)in CRC compared to normal tissue(COAD:1.91,READ:1.89).IHC testing confirmed that INPP4B was upregulated in clinical CRC tissues and paracancerous tissues(P<0.001).Cox regression model analysis showed that INPP4B(hazards ratio[HR]=1.457,95%confidence interval[CI]:1.003-2.115)affected the prognosis of CRC,and the Kaplan-Meier curve showed that patients with high INPP4B expression had shorter overall survival(P<0.05).x2 test was performed to analyze the relationship between INPP4B expression and clinicopathological indexes,and it was found that high expression of INPP4B was correlated with lymph node metastasis(x2=3.997,P=0.046)and neural invasion(x2=8.511,P=0.004).In in vitro experiments,CRC cells overexpressing INPP4B showed a significantly increased cell proliferation and migration compared to the cells in the control group(P<0.05).Analysis using the LinkedOmics database showed that INPP4B was correlated with extracellular matrix remodeling and cell migration.Pearson's correlation analysis showed that MMP7 was positively correlated with INPP4B(r=0.3782,P<0.001).INPP4B overexpression or knockdown in vitro also led to the upregulation or the downregulation of MMP7 expression in CRC cells.Conclusion INPP4B is highly expressed in CRC tissues and significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis,neural invasion,and patient prognosis.MMP7 may mediate the role of INPP4B in promoting CRC cell migration and invasion.

ObjectiveCentral nervous system (CNS) infiltration commonly occurs in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Early subclinical CNS infiltration in pediatric ALL is hard to detect with conventional methods. This study aimed to investigate the changes of brain structure volume parameters based on Synthetic MRI (SyMRI) in pediatric ALL without clinically diagnosed CNS infiltration. MethodsThirty-six ALL and twenty-nine typically developing (TD) children were prospectively collected and all underwent SyMRI. The Synthetic MR software was used to obtain brain volumetric parameters including total white matter volume (WMV), gray matter volume (GMV), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume, etc. and their within-group differences were assessed by analysis of covariance. The Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between biological characteristics and statistically significant brain volume parameters. ResultsALL children showed increased CSF volume (PFDR-corrected = 0.009) and decreased GMV (PFDR-corrected = 0.027) when compared to TD children. We also found a moderately negative association between GMV/intracranial volume and risk classification in pediatric ALL (rs = -0.380, P = 0.022). ConclusionsPediatric ALL without clinically diagnosed CNS infiltration presented with accumulation of CSF and reduction of gray matter. The brain volumetric changes in subclinical CNS infiltration of pediatric ALL provides a new attempt for exploring the underlying mechanism and early detection of CNS infiltration in pediatric ALL.

ObjectiveThe glymphatic system regulates cerebral spinal fluid and interstitial fluid transport which might be one of the pathways of central nervous system (CNS) leukemia at the early stage. This study aimed to investigate the alteration of glymphatic system based on diffusion tensor image-analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) without clinically diagnosed CNS infiltration. MethodsTwenty-five ALL and typically developing (TD) children were prospectively recruited, and all subjects underwent DTI. Group differences in brain water diffusivities and ALPS-index were evaluated using the analysis of covariance. The Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between biological characteristics and significant parameters in pediatric ALL. ResultsCompared with TDs, decreased Dxassoc value (PFDR-corrected = 0.048) and increased Dzassoc value (PFDR-corrected = 0.033) were found in pediatric ALL. Hence, lower ALPS-index was found in children with ALL (PFDR-corrected < 0.001). ALPS-index was negatively associated with the risk classification (rs = -0.47, P = 0.018) as well as immunophenotype (rs = -0.40, P = 0.046) in pediatric ALL. ConclusionsOur results show dysfunction of the glymphatic system is presented in pediatric ALL without clinically diagnosed CNS infiltration, which suggests that the glymphatic system might be one of pathway in the early-stage of ALL CNS infiltration. The DTI-ALPS method can be used to evaluate the change of glymphatic system, providing a new method for exploring the underlying mechanisms and early detection of pediatric ALL CNS infiltration.
